Enioy Life.

What truly beautiful world We
live in! Nature gives us grandeur of
mountains, glens and oceans, and
thousands of means of enjoyment.
We can desire no better when In per-
feet health but how often do the
majority of people feel like giving it
up disheartened, discouraged and
worn out with disease, when there is
no occasion for this feeling, as every
sufferer can easily obtain satisfacto-
ry Eroof, that Green's August Flow
er, will make them free from disease,
as when born. Dyspepsia and Liver
Complaint are the direct causes of
seventy-five per cent. of such mala-
dies as Biliousness, Indigestion, Sick
Headache, Costiveness, Nervous Pros
tration, Dizziness of the head, Palpi-
tation of the Heart. and other dis
tressing symptoms. Three doses of
August Flower will prove its wonder
full effect. Sample bottles, 10 cents.

Who May Keep Drug Stores.

As so much has been said of latG
about the enforcement of what Law
we have concerning the restraints or
the sale of Intoxicating liquors, and
as it has been publicly charged time
and again that some Of the drug
stores in this county are but another
name for dramshops, perhaps 1t is
well to publish some plain provisions
of the law on that subject.
Section l of Session Acts of 1881,
page $50, reads as follows:
1t shall be unlawful for any per-
son not a registered pharmacist,
within the meaning Of this act, to
co7duct any pharmacy, drug store,
apothecary shop or store, for the
purpose of retailing, compounding
or dispensing medicines or polsons
for medical use, except as hereiDaf-
ter provided.
Section 2. 1t shall be unlawful for
the proprietor of any store or phar-
macy to allow any person, except q
registered pharmacist, to compound
or dispense the prescriptions Of ply
sicians, or to retail or dispense poi
sons for medical use, except as an
aid to and under the supervision Of
a registered pharmacist. Any per-
son violating the provisions Of this
section shall be deemed guilty of q
mlsdemeanor, and on conviction
thereof shall be liable to a fine Of
not less than $25 nor more than
500, for each and every offense.
Section 4. As amended by the
last legislature reads as follows.
Hereafter no physician shall be per-
mltted to register as pharmacist
or druggist, except in the manner
provided by law for other persons /;
and any physician licensed as phar-
macist or druggist, and owning or
operating a drug store or pharmacy
who shall write and permit the filling
at his own drug store or pharmacy
of prescription calling for intoxl-
eating liquor, except the same Is for
the purpose and under the conditions
mentioned In section 2, of this act,
shall be guilty of a misdemeanor,
and on conviction shall have his Ii
cense revoked, and IN addition there
to be fined in sum of not less than
one hundred dollars or more than
five hundred dollars.
Section 8 makes it unlawful for
any licensed, registered pharmacist
or druggist to retail, sell or give
away any alcoholic liquors or COM
pounds as beverage under penal
ty of not less than $25, nor more
than 500.

A para1vzed Te1eeranher.

Z It's probable that had Mr.. Beecher un-
derstood telegraphy he might have COM
municated with his family after the
stroke which rendered him speeches..
The contraction of the fingers of his right
hand would seem to indicate the possibil-
ity that he was conscious, and had he
known how to regulate those contractions
in the formation of telegraphic signals he
could have. thus conveyed his thoughts
while otherwise utterly powerless.f I
knew of case some years ago in which a
telegrapher thus communicated with me,
when we supposed him unconscious. In
holding his hand felt faint twitching
of the muscles of his fingers and recog-
nized telegraphic signals thus made. He
was perfectly conscious of what was pass
ing around him but unable to speak or
move muscle, except the faint contrac-
ton of the finger muscles las described.
1t was remarkable case and unparalleled
SO far as I know.-GlObe-De Democrat.

Mortifying Absentmindedness.

A habit of absentmindedness is not an
envfable possession, as it often leads one
into embarrassing situations, out of which
one has to scramble as best one may. Not
long ago a lady, whose mind is often
soaring above this worlds hG-ndrum, was
visiting at the house of a f. lend who is
the happy possessor of many interesting
works of art and fine collection Of brio
a-brac.
Some rare bits were produced for her
admiration, and as she admired each one
she put it carefully away In the pocket OF
her dress, much to the dismay of the
hostess, who wondered if she could have
been understood to have said that she
wished to give these treasures away.
After talking little while the visitor de
parted, taking with her the valuable
articles de vertu. That evening, as she
changed her street costume, she discov'
cred, to her horror, the articles she had
admired at her friends house few hours
before in her pocket Imagine with what
feelings she sent back the treasures she
had unconsciously taken, with O. note OF
embarrassed apOlogy.-BOstOn Post.

The Appetite of birds.

Of all animals birds possess the quickest
motions, the most energetic respiration
and the warmest blood, and they conse-
Quently undergo the most rapid change of
substance and need the most food.
Although few creatures are so pleasing
to the aesthetic tastes of POLITICALLY in
clined person as birds, the breeder knows
that most of them are to be looked upon
as hearty or excessive eaters. Any one
who closely observed birds and their con-
duct viii soon remark that all their
thoughts and efforts, aside from the few
days they spend in wooing and their short
periods of resting, are directed to getting
something to eat. With what restless
earnestness do titmice plunge through
the bushes and. the streesI Not "a
leaf is uninvestigated, every chink in the
bark is examined for whatever eatable it
may be hiding, and sharp look is cast
into every joint Of a branch. How in
dustriously does the ousel turn and thrash
the leaves on the ground of the woods all
the day long, spying its game with a
glance of its sharp eye, and swapping it
up on the instantl
After observing few such incidents we
can easily believe the stories that gre re-
lated of the fish eating powers of the cor
morant, and of the fruit eating birds that
are able to consume three times their
weight every day.-Popular Science
Monthly.
